Hello,
I am trying to make a simple histogram with counts on the vertical axis but I am getting very weird looking graphs...
I do have 76000 ID's in my data with each having a count:
ID count
1 89
2 126
3 569
. .
. .
. .
. .
. .
. .
76000 176
I want each of the IDs to have a column and the column to be as tall as the count.
Thanks
What code/proc are you using now that is giving you weird answers?
I'm using a proc univariate
Trying to create 76000 columns in a single chart is probably not ever going to work, especially with univariate.
Try either proc gplot or sgplot,maybe with a needle plot. Though you aren't going to have much luck associating any specific ID with it's count.
Usually you can use weight for a variable when you have the counts already pre-processed, however the histogram statement does not support this in proc univariate.
I'll agree with BallardW suggestion of a Needle Plot.
